Lord Diablo is Not Pleased with the Present Shipping Conditions

Since there’s really nothing else to say to top that excellent caption, I’m going to use this space to share the news that there’s a new patch for Diablo II that was just released that fans should be eager to hear about. Yes, people still play this game ten years later. They fixed a lot of shitty stuff that was wrong with the game (most notably, my eternal foe, Iron Maiden, has been axed), and Blizzard appears to be willing to make it rain high runes. So to speak. Here are some other changes.
- Respecialization is now possible! Completing the ‘Den of Evil’ quest
will now additionally reward 1 free respec which can be saved. Players
who have already completed this quest should receive 1 free respec in
Hell difficulty.
- Increased the drop rate of high runes.
- Support for bit scaling in windowed mode. The game can now be
maximized to the largest 4:3 resolution supported (hooray widescreen users).
- Some rare drop items now have an orange color. i.e. Runes and items
required for Uber Tristam.
- Modified the gold bank limit to be a flat cap not bound by level.
- Removed the requirements to create a hardcore character.
- Greatly reduced the explosion damage dealt by Fire Enchanted monsters.
- Uber Mephisto and Uber Baal’s summoned minions no longer give experience.
- Removed Oblivion Knight’s Iron Maiden curse.
Respecing! No way! There are also a bunch of class specific changes too numerous to list here. For the full rundown, head over to Diablo3x.
